Saudi Arabia name[edit]

It would be important to note that G. W. Rendell came up with the name ,,Saudi Arabia".

At the time of the trip, 48-year-old George Rendel was head of the British Foreign Office’s Eastern Department. He had been responsible for Britain’s relations with Saudi Arabia since 1930, and in 1932 it was he who suggested “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia” as the official name of the newly declared sovereign state.
